It does what it does quite elegantly. And although there is an alternative now that may be widely used, this plugin is by far the easiest to setup/configure/use/manage. Appears to work fine on OBS v28 too! Ive used this plugin for awhile now, and love its simplicity.
Omg one of the best plugin I ever found.

There two one issue I found so far. If I want to populate in filter the "height" is same value like the width
Next OBS crashs most time if I want to close. Its annoying because I need to use taskmanager for it.
I think I did the goods settings, I can "see" the source moving when forwarding on settings, but unfortunatly, when I add motion filter to the scene and source, source is lost, can't be found anywhere on the screen, it just disappeared
This might be my reason to stay in OBS in stead of switching to vMix
Wish there was a 'crop' option among the 'position' and 'size' one.

Also 'position' overwrites 'size', so if you change the position after setting width to for example 0, then use a position - it'll 100% width the source then move it.
Neat transition if you are using the same background across the scene you want to transition. If not, it doesn't look quite as good, in my opinion, but still functions as another transition type.
Works great on windows with maybe a few hiccups every now and then, but there is still no official Mac OS support. Can someone help on that front?
i wish there was a mac plugin
really great plugin, only thing is i would like the duration slider to be able to higher than 5 seconds for slow zoom ins or zoom out on my face camera for a cinematic effect. i think raising that to 1 minute would give me a lot more functionality out of this plugin
I've been using this plugin for over a year now. I use the filter in order to smoothly have different things like text slide in and out of frame to show/hide scoreboards during splatoon 2 competitions. The transition has been very useful in giving my retro-PC OS themed streams a natural look with windows simply zooming in/out and moving around on top of a basic animated background. Useful tidbit, it treats groups like a single source, meaning if you group sources together they will zoom in/out from the center of that group rather than each individual item, which is perfect for my OS theming.
